With its high-quality sound engine, pro-style appearance, and powerful specifications—including a newly designed library of sounds and interactive styles—the Roland keyboard raises the quality standard for entry-level arrangers.

International Appeal

With a global array of interactive musical accompaniments onboard, the Roland E-09 puts a world of colorful and authentic music under your fingertips. Master programmers from around the world have created special Styles for the E-09, spotlighting the Western, Middle Eastern, and Asian cultures.

EZ Operation

As Roland's technology continues to expand and improve, so too does the user-friendliness of its instruments. This electronic keyboard is no exception, as it provides a clearly labeled lineup of large, friendly buttons across its front panel, logically organized into task types. There are one-touch Tone and Style locator buttons to help find the sound and style quickly, plus an array of helpful, dedicated controls to make navigating and playing the keyboard a breeze.

Low Profile, Big Sound

The Roland E-09 arranger keyboard introduces a professional-grade industrial design to the E family. Its black metallic finish, coupled with a slim, streamlined chassis design, makes the E-09 eye catching and easy to transport. Despite its slim physique, the E-09 outputs an impressively big sound from its built-in stereo speaker system. To further enhance the sound, the built-in effects processor can add space, depth, and other special effects. There are 47 types of multi-effects to choose from, plus eight varieties of reverbs and choruses.

This little keyboard is just what I needed to carry and set up for small groups- or practice. The key bed was what I was looking for (having mostly played the piano for many years) Light weight but sturdy-quiet keys. The speakers are good quality. The Yamaha PSR series is easier to navigate, but this board is good once you get the hang of it. You can layer and store 100 tones , and easily set the volume between the two. the music style and music assistant mostly choose some favorite tone mixes- but is handy to turn your playing into an accompniment part. You can hook it up to an amp- and still adjust the volume control. The tones are rich- it has enough pianos and e- pianos, could use a couple more mellow organs. It doesn't come with a pedal, and uses the opposite polarity as a Yamaha one. I had a switchable one. It's very much worth the money- for what you get, and after having it about a month- I wouldn't hesitate to make the same choice

I purchased this keyboard about a year ago and I'd have to say I'm pretty pleased. I bought it as a second keyboard because my Yamaha P-250 is just too heavy to move around when jamming with others away from home. The voices on this board are really nice for a keyboard in this price range, that's what convinced me to purchase this one. I gave it 4 stars instead of five because I'm not real crazy about the fact that you have to hold the tempo button down until you get to the desired tempo. I prefer the Yamaha way of doing it where you just dial in the tempo and you're there but in this price range I preferred the Roland voices. There's little question about the quality...it's a Roland.
